The platform now includes two new proprietary calculators and an enhanced “My Projects” feature for registered users, giving design engineers more powerful resources to optimize system performance and streamline workflows. “Timken has always been committed to helping engineers design with confidence,” said Michael Kotzalas, director – global customer engineering. “With the addition of these new calculators and project enhancements, we’re making it even easier for customers to access expert insights, analyze performance, and collaborate efficiently.” Site users will be able to access two new calculators: Bearing Spring Rate Calculator – Determines linear stiffness values of single-row tapered roller bearings under predetermined loads applied to the bearing. This tool allows users to evaluate whether a selected bearing will perform well under loads applied in both radial and axial directions. Gear Forces Calculator – Calculates tangential, radial and axial forces resulting from meshing gears in a system. By entering gear parameters and operating conditions, design engineers gain valuable insights for proper bearing selection. Timken’s engineering tools website provides a suite of calculators, search capabilities and performance modeling resources, including the proprietary Timken Syber Bearing System Designer. Data from the tools can be exported into common design programs, output into CAD drawings, or saved for future use, helping engineers quickly simulate real-world conditions and make informed design and purchasing decisions.</span></p>
